I agree that there is a terrible amount of illegals, but please- send reports 
of all this to chuck skolat of ARRL. He works very hard to get officials 
involved. You may not think its much, but they try. Also- I find that a few 
CQ's from you and some friends all sending olivia on AM can tend to push the 
scum off the band

Hi all,

This last scan of the day was a hard one...I really had to listen
carefully though all the QRM from illegal AM'ers on the fives.

I don't remember this level of QRM from illegals during Cycle 23.
There must be a whole lot more illegal radios now.

10m used to be my favorite band but that is slowly changing. I am
seriously considering removing my beacon from 10m and placing it on
another band...maybe 6m.

Weather we like it or not, we are slowly losing our band to illegals.
Nothing is being done about it and it is getting worse. I'm hearing
more of them on the phone portion 28300 to 28500.
